To most of the 27 ranked and still unsigned free agents, the salary arbitration offered by their 2010 teams wasn't really an option. All but two -- setup relievers Frank Francisco of Texas and Jason Frasor of Toronto -- declined the offers made a week ago by Tuesday's 11:59 p.m. ET deadline. Francisco and Frasor are now locked into remaining with the Rangers and the Blue Jays, respectively, for a one-year salary either negotiated or arbitrated. The others continue to be free to negotiate 2011 contracts with any club -- including their most recent - MLB

Daniel Murphy:
An MRI revealed that Daniel Murphy, who was hitting .320 in winter ball before his injury, suffered a mild left hamstring strain with no loss of motion or strength in the leg. Murphy, a candidate for the starting second-base job next season, will rehab his hamstring and resume baseball activities as tolerated.- http://www.mets.com/

11-24-10 from: - Mets Geek - 5. Cesar Puello. If this guy makes it, he will be a fan favotite. I hate using phrases like “this kid plays the game the right way” but that is the best way to describe him. A very smart player, Cesar gets the most out of his tools. I haven’t seen a throwing arm in the low minors that is as accurate as his arm. He is a very smart base runner, a good bunter and has a nice, projectable bat. He played some centerfield in instructs and it will be interesting to see him in center for St Lucie this spring. He made a rather impressive adjustment in his swing this summer for a kid his age, which has helped him make better contact and should help him reap benefits of his power game soon enough. Best case scenario is a good major league starting outfield able to do a little bit of everything to help his team win. Worst case scenario is being unable to make adjustments to hit advanced pitching.
